9st 3lb |
All three wins at 2m, the latest coming here last month on good to firm (Class 4); this is a different ball game altogether and he'd be receiving lumps of weight off most of these in a handicap. |

Has proved consistent on the AW since last September, including when winning at Southwell (1m6f, Tapeta) last month; has run well off this mark in both outings since and looks one for the shortlist. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed 8yo but he was returning from 264 days off when winning by 3.5l at Ffos Las nine days ago (2m, good), despite pulling hard; Zoe Lewis rides again with a 4lb penalty; if as good again he'll be tough to beat. |

Missed a chunk of his career and has been steadily regressive since; hit and miss last backend and is entitled to need this at his age after nine months off; wouldn't want too much rain. |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Absent since finishing 5l behind Caprelo here in May; may put up a better fight in the rematch, having been fresh when gamely making all over C&D earlier in the spring. |

Having his second start back from wind surgery when making all and just holding on over C&D last month (first two clear); has since finished fourth of eight in a slightly better race at Ascot (2m, good to firm); respected, especially if again allowed an uncontested lead. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Usually consistent, but her modest effort at Goodwood (2m, soft) last time was disappointing given she does handle any ground; needs to bounce back from that. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
10-58 overall for this 9yo, with none of those races at this track; can make the running; won at Ffos Las (2m, heavy) last September (by 12l) and Nottingham (1m6f, good) this May; not far away when third of four at Lingfield 12 days ago in hat-trick bid and has an each-way chance. |

A fair 2m winner at his best but he came in last in 2m Newcastle handicap in December; won a point last month though so is no forlorn hope. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Veteran who hasn't won since 2023, stays a deal further and is on the downgrade now; patchy for his new yard this year and others make greater appeal back from seven weeks off. |

7th 1 (10) |
18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won his share in Ireland but has been on the downgrade for a while and has had three different trainers in the past nine months; however, he showed enough on the AW here last time to suggest he has each-way claims back up in trip and down another 2lb. |
12/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Losing run stretches back to May 2023 (hurdles); ended 2025 with some modest efforts for James Owen and fared little better when fifth of seven on his stable debut 11 weeks ago (2m, Polytrack); enough to prove. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Minor honours in his last four AW races (1m5f/2m) but well beaten in his only two turf starts this term and absent since June; he has won twice but is not straightforward and does not look the percentage call; yard runs four. |
12/1 |

13th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Strong traveller who's far from easy and has hung both ways (normally to the left); arrives in good form for a yard among the winners, though, and is on a mark off which he can win when things fall right. |
7/1 |

2 (2) |
5th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Hurdle winner who got off the mark on the Flat over C&D in December; couple of creditable thirds here since then but he flopped at Ascot (last of eight) last month and needs to bounce back after that 13l defeat; stablemate of Donald Llewellyn. |
